Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description

Let an agent give general, non-diagnostic information about cardiovascular disease, emergency signs first, and route people to health professionals.

A class of diseases affecting the heart or blood vessels, including coronary heart disease, stroke, hypertension-related disease, peripheral artery disease and rarer conditions such as vascular tumours; the leading cause of death worldwide.

What it is for: A group of medical conditions diagnosed and treated by health professionals.

It can be call emergency services for heart attack or stroke signs; check blood pressure and risk factors; follow prevention guidance; access rehabilitation.
